TREATY.

Tn Yesterdays edition the GLOBE pub
lished the text of the protest made by the
Leech Lake Indians against the eontirma-
ton of the treaty recently made, whele by
these Indians are TO be removed to the
White Earth reservation. 1t was known to
the public at the time the negotiations were
pending that there was considerable opp0si-
ton to the terms proposed by the Indian
commission manifested by the Indians of
all the tribes included in the treaty. But
when it was announced that the treaty had
been completed and signed by all the prin-
cpal chiefs. it was supposed that the In
dams had cheerfully agreed to abide by the
stipulations. From an interview with
delegation of Indians representing the
White Earth and Leech Lake bands. the
GLOBE learns that the young men of the
various bands are unwilling to submit to
the terms of the treaty. and will make an
effort to have hearing before the Great
Father at Washington.
While it is proper that the Indians shall
have respectful hearing, it is not proba-
bic that the government at Washington
will undertake to disturb or change the con-
UlUlOlS VI tn6 treaty tudt was negotiated Dy
the Indian commission. In the first place,
it is generally recognized that the treaty
makes the wisest provision that it is posi-
BILE to make for the disposition of these In
dams. In the next place the assertion
made by the protesting Indians that their
people were tricked into the agreement by
false representations made by members of
the commission will not stand the test of
truthful scrutiny. The members of the
commission are not gentlemen who will re-
sort to tricks or misrepresentation to carry
any point. They had no interest at stake
to induce them to do so, and. if they had,
they are gentlemen of too high character to
even be suspected of duplcity. That part
of the protest will be ruled out in the be-
ginning. The only point that the govern
ment will really be inclined to consider will
be that which refers to the matter of com
pensation for the damages resulting from
the construction of the dams at Leech lake.
If the amount agreed upon, and stated in
the treaty, is not a just compensation. then
the government should not hest tate to in
crease the amount. This point, at least,
deserves investigation. but the other feat
ures of the treaty should stand.

MR.DoRAN,s NoM1NAr1oN.

The Democratic members of the legisla-
ture acted wisely last night in holding
caucus to nominate candidate for United
States senator, and acted with equal wis
dom in naming Hon. MICHAEL DoRAN as
the caucus nominee. 1t IS only by main
tanning a strict party organization that
Democratic principles can ever be put into
practice The nomination of Mr.. DoRAN
was a deserved tribute for his long service
in the ranks of Minnesota Democracy. The
nominee has been faithful to the principles
of his paaty and during long and honor
able career in this state has contributed
largely to its growth and prosperity. While
in one sense the nomination is an empty
honor. inasmuch as it makes the nominee
the leader of forlorn hope, still in another
sense it is a high compliment, being, as it
is, an expression of confidence in the nomi
nee's loyalty to his party and recognition
of his effective work as chairman of the
state central committee.

Gov. Hauser's Farewell Message.
The Territory's Bright Prospects.
Special to the Globe.
HELENA, Mont, Jan. 12.-The feature
of the legislative session to-day was the
message of Gov. Hauser, who made his last
recommendation, to the regret Of all parties,
before retiring. He shows the territory not
ONLY to be free from bonded indebtedness.
but to have S57, 900 in the treasury. After
the financial exhibit, the governor recon-
mends all increase in the Judiciary, Endorses
the school system. which he says has
reached high ideal without any assistance
from the general government, and then he
gives railroad schemes big boom on the
basis of perfected and projected plans of
rival lines. Then after recommending an
amendment to the militia laws and urging
a registration law, he tackled the restric-
tons of the timber laws. and shows that
they are repressive of the timber land de-
velopment. Public schools he shows to be
in fine condition under the circumstances,
but they might be in better if the govern
ment would give more money and less adj
vice. AS to
RAILROAD DEVELOPMENT
the governor grows enthusiastic and shows
that more than l. 600 miles will be added to
the operated lines next year, and urges
liberal policy Oh the part of the government.
In the matter of taxation. especially as to
mortgaged property, the governor says the
law as it now stands is much too loose and
indefinite, and results in many cases of
double taxation. the borrower paving tax
both on the property and on the mortgage,
the lender simply increasing the interest to
cover the tax on the mortgage. Then after
c,,fc DC RI Of
special laws to conform to the general laws
and as to memorials, ETC.. the governor says
he favors an amendment of the irrigation
and desert land laws, so as to give such
lands to the government for the general

REVOLUTIONARY POLITICS

The members of the Indiana and New
are having a good deal of fun, and doubt
less imagine that they are affording the
country some first-class amusement with
their clownlsh attempts to effect an organi-
Zation of their respective bodies. But this
happens to be all instance of what is fun
for the boys is death to the frogs" The
scenes at Trenton and Indianapolis afford a
lamentable Illustration of the one weak
point in our republican gevernment-the
danger it is exposed to from the bitterness
of partisan rivalry. The states of Indiana
and New Jersey are to-day suffering from
form of political anarchism as dangerous to
republican institutions as the social an
archism which afflicts Chicago. In both
states it is desperate attempt on the part
of political factions to overthrow the popu-
lar will. This intention is more manifest
in Indiana than in New Jersey, although
the causes which provoked the disgraceful
scramble in both states are the same. The
possibility that the control of the United
States senate may slip away from the Re-
publican party has thrown the Repub-
L
their anxiety to maintain supremacy in the
upper branch of congress, they are resort
ing to revolutionary measures of the most
dangerous character. In the Indiana leg
islature the Democrats have a majority on
joint ballot. 1t is small majority, but an
honest one. But its SmallneSs was tempt
alton to the Republicans to make an at
tempt to overthrow it. The Democrats nat
urally resisted the JAcoBIN processes of
the Indiana Republicans and the result is a
squabble of the most disgraceful sort In
New Jersey the Democrats also have clear
majority in the legislature, but the Repub-
licans are seeking to disorganize it by meth
DDS entirely different from those employed
In Indiana. and somewhat mole credtable.
Instead of attempting to overcome the ma
iority by brute force, their effort is to play
on the treacherous qualities of three un-
faithful Democratic members. Assuming
that everything is fair in politics. just as it
is in love or war, the New Jersey Repub-
lieans are not SO culpable as their Indiana
brethren. If Democrats are willing to
turn traitors to their party the opposition is
not to blame for taking advantage of their
treachery. At the same time it is deplera-
blet to contemplate such perversion of the
popular will in a country where the people
are supposed to be sovereign. II is sad
travesty on "a government of the people,
for the people and by the people" when,
